Can you spend your life, a man that no-one ever hates?Can you just fit in with everything, another face?Never challenging or disturbing the status quoYou try to fit in and you just keep your status low

If you think you're beatenYou will be beaten downIf you think you're losingYou have lost it allIf you think you're beatenYou will be beaten downWhy do you try to be a manA man that no-one hates

You just accept that where you are is where you'll always beAlways being, there's a madness of it's own you seeIn quiet desperation you live, no-one ever knowsThe suffering you bear so you can be a tortured soul

If you think you're beatenYou will be beaten downIf you think you're losingYou have lost it allIf you think you're beatenYou will be beaten downWhy do you try to be a manA man that no-one hates

When you are not there you wonder what it is they sayThey despise your unobtrusive humble, subtle waysFrom contempt to loathing into hatred it's too lateBy trying to fit in you failed to be a man that no-one hates

If you think you're beatenYou will be beaten downIf you think you're losingYou have lost it allIf you think you're beatenYou will be beaten downWhy do you try to be a manA man that no-one hates
